Accordingly, it\u00a0denied\u00a0petitioner\u2019s request to correct the caption of the Petition.\u00a0\u00a0The effect petitioner&#8217;s motion to correct was actually an attempt to substitute parties.\u00a0 Petitioners must be\u00a0very careful when reviewing the USPTO&#8217;s assignment records, which are\u00a0confusing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In TD Bank Group v.
